Peace be upon you all,
First let me say that I respect everyones understanding and that 2 Pac said it best when he said;
I'll have to study Adam much more as like someone said its a metaphore so patience and God's guidance are needed to understand this thoroughly.
With that said, I will continue to debate my understanding until I see an argumant that solidly rejects it.
What we have to do is to take these stories out of the subjective into the objective. The God is not giving us stories of history for the sake of saying, "this is what happened to a man named adam and his wife", this is a guidance for us, it is explaining how the MIND/Spirit (nafs) works because that is what we are dealing with, he who purifies the nafs succeeds and those that dont fail.
We can all verify for ourselves that in out minds/spirit we have verbal thoughts and also visual images. They are two of the programming tools of the Nafs(mind/spirit). Shouldn't that be the first thing we are informed of at the beginning(genisis)?
The "whisperer" is the animalistic thoughts that come from the animal spirit which is why the wicked are metaphorized as animals. ALthough I dont think the snake is actually stated in this reading, itis stated in others, because itis the reptilian brain ( I think its called R complex) that is our oldest brain which sends these thoughts to us. The reptilian brain is coered by the mammalian brain, then the cerebral cortex. We are suppossed to transcend the animal brain with the others.
Anyway, lets get back to the story. The verbal thoughts are are intellect. It is the aquired information we get from livinghere on this earth, some information is correct, some is not. But we get information through segregating and naming/defining things, which is opposite to the unifying (oneness) nature needed to gain knowledge.
Let me repeat that, when you name/define things, you are seperating one thing from another, that is how you define/name. What was "adam" doing? Exactly that. D
Thoughts form images, thats why "his mate" came afterwards. She does not have a name because visualization is wholeistic, not segregative/linear like verbal thoughts. Verbal thoughts are left brain activities and visual images are right brained(wholeistic).
For example, I could show you a picture and you could understand what I was trying to convey, or I could verbally explain it which would give you piece by piece in order to explain it.
This makes the story objective and verifyable, therefore giving us sure guidance.

I stated that the Janna where Adam lived is here on Earth. There is a recent scientific theory that the first humans emerged from the thick tropical jungles of Africa and Amazonia. The Koran describes it as a paradise, because humans had all that they needed food, water, shelter from the sun, etc... They lived in these jungles and never knew thirst or hunger, cold or heat.
The word Adam is derived from the root "alif" , "dal" , "meem". ( Please refer to my post on page one ). The idea is that Adam was the name of the first race of humans ( Homo Sapiens ) who were intelligent enough to be God's vicegerents on Earth (Khalifa). This happened after eons of evolution.
When Adam ( the race ) was in the "Janna", their number was not very great. After they disobeyed God and were banished, we see the word "ard" was used. This is to denote that the rest of the Earth - the whole Earth- will be their domain, and the domain of all their descendents ( generations ) until the end of time.
Humans began to spread and multiply over vast expanses of the planet. They were no longer confined to the "janna" . This is why God used the word "ard".
The "Janna" is part of the Earth, ultimately. So if they were in this paradise, then they were definately on Earth.So they spread and scattered, and were now forced to cultivate, hunt for food, and build shelters against the natural forces.
this makes perfect sense to me!
but pazuzu, r u also saying theres no seperate entity called heaven?
and had to say this, ur avtar is scary ? -
SaLaM everyone
Wow. Im so proud to see the diversity of our believes cry .
Dont know if im the only one here who believes Adam and Satan/shaitan to be an entity. But can those of you who belive it to be our nafs and whatnot, can you all explain the verses 7.19 - 7.25 using ur understanding? Like what do you think verse 7.19 says and what what do you think verse 7.20 says ALL with YOUR understanding.
Joe
Jannah = Garden
Jannah represents more than a place in the hereafter.
I do believe in jannah.
So you dont belive in heaven. But you believe in Garden. Garden = Jannah. Garden is in the afterlife. But you just replaced the word 'Heaven' with Garden ?
What do u think is the difference between Garden and Paradise?
2Pac
If Adam was in "Paradise" up there far away and he ate the forbidden fruit and we ended up here because of that then that's Adams fault not ours so why should we be all here and punished for it. It doesn't make sense for God to punish our souls by sending us to Earth with Adam
And then there is that women menstruate becoz eve commited a sin. looooooll. This is the reason why im more inclined towards the 'big bang / evolution theory'. But my belief in Quran and the 'Evolution theory' clash. Still cant figure it out. (
Pazuzu
The idea is that Adam was the name of the first race of humans ( Homo Sapiens ) who were intelligent enough to be God's vicegerents on Earth (Khalifa). This happened after eons of evolution.
So that would then coincide with the evolution theory right? And if im not misunderstanding you, you are saying that Jannah is part of the earth. A very beautiful part. And Ard is the not so beautiful part of the earth? Correct?
Idmkhizar
Brother where do you dissapear to? loool.
Now if jannah is on earth then this last phrase above doesnt really make much sense.
I feel the same. I cannot see how after reading the Quran, one can assume that Jannah is on earth. Hmmmmmmm.
Idolfree
Brother your beliefs always inspiring. for real. but the main difference here is that im taking this story literally. You are not. Like totally different end of the spectrum loooll. You are violet. Im red. You are day and im night. lollllll. This releationship is not going to work ( rotfl

Peace,
So you dont belive in heaven. But you believe in Garden. Garden = Jannah. Garden is in the afterlife. But you just replaced the word 'Heaven' with Garden
No. Please do not impose your beliefs on mine own. Jannah is a place of advancement. I do not believe in the idea of heaven as you may believe . The garden represents the growth of the individual, the abode of peace.
What do u think is the difference between Garden and Paradise?
It's more than meets the eye. That's the non-literal approach to which you do not conform and as you said to Kyle "This releationship is not going to work".
But can those of you who belive it to be our nafs and whatnot, can you all explain the verses 7.19 - 7.25 using ur understanding? Like what do you think verse 7.19 says and what what do you think verse 7.20 says ALL with YOUR understanding.
I explained to you in post #26. Because of suggestive influence we must tread through materialistic domains. Our putting forth is our return "dar al-salam".

Brother no one is imposing anything on you. What i meant to say was that your beleif , ie You beleive in Garden, Garden = Jannah and Garden is in the after life, sounds exactly the same as someone who believes in Paradise, ie I belive in paradise, Paradise = Jannah and Paradise is in the after life. The last part was just me thinking out loud
Our putting forth is our return
What goes around comes around. Indeed.

but pazuzu, r u also saying theres no seperate entity called heaven?It depends on the context of the verse, brother. If you want to know what the word "Janna" means, you have to read the whole verse to understand the context.
For example, in 1791,92, we see the rejecters telling the prophet that they will not believe him, unless he can cause a spring of water to burst from the ground, or that he brings about a "Janna" of palm trees and grapes and causes rivers to run through it.
Here we can see that the word "janna" means simply a garden.
Likewise, when we read 36 34,35
{And we made in it (the previously barren land ) "Jannat" of date palms and grapes and made springs gush forth therein * so that they may eat from its fruits and what they manufacture with their own hands....}
Here, too, we see the word "Jannat" as meaning gardens or orchids.
It all depends on the context.

Yes I am a firm believer of evolution. This doesn't necessarily mean that I support the Darwin version of it, but I refuse the ridiculous story of creation that the traditionalists believe.
I refuse to believe that 6 billion human beings came from one couple.
Remember that Satan used the idea of immortality to seduce Adam.
If Adam lived in the Paradise Hereafter, then he must have been an immortal already. So how can he be seduced by something which he already has??
The Paradise of the Afterlife does not exist yet. It will come into existance in the Hereafter.
And if im not misunderstanding you, you are saying that Jannah is part of the earth. A very beautiful part. And Ard is the not so beautiful part of the earth? Correct?
Not quite. Ard means the whole Earth - as the domain of al Nas ( humankind). It is a place of toil, hardships, and trial. The Janna was a place of happiness, where one can eat and drink to his heart's content, without needing to fear or worry. It may have been Earth in a previous, lost state. Who knows?
The point is, Adam was here all along. WE have been here all along. We were created from the Earth, we will return to the Earth, and from the Earth we will rise again.
...and had to say this, ur avtar is scary
Believe me, I look even scarier in real life. twisted
-
I thought it was 'completel knowledge' instead of 'immortality'.
Not quite. God had already taught him the "names of all things", before Satan reared his ugly head in.
Read 20120
{But the devil whispered to him and said "Shall I lead you to the tree of immortality and a kingdom which will not waste away?}

Peace be upon you Jaxal,
(719-25)And you Adam, reside/inhabit you and your wife/spouse the Garden, so you (B) eat from (it) where/when you (B) willed/wanted, and do not approach/near this/that the tree, so you (B) become/will be from the unjust/oppressive.
**Mans intellect(adam) and imagination(his wife) were made to be submissive to the God. As long as they worked for the God's cause, they could enjoy the Garden and have all they needed. ***
So the wordly obsession(shaytaan) talked to/gave evil suggestions and temptations to them (B) to show to them (B) what was hidden/concealed from them (B) from their (B)'s shameful genital private parts, and he said "Your (B)'s Lord did not prevent you (B) from that/this tree except that you (B) become/be two controlling forces or you (B) become/be from the immortal/eternal ."
The implication is that the physical side of things was not visible. The physical side is the lowest part of being where things appear seperated. The wordly obsession(rejecting thoughts) call us to the lowly physical illusion, the God calls us to the Most High.*
And he swore/made oath to them (B) "I am to you (B) from (E) the advisors/counselors."
The lowly world, is decieving
So he lured/attracted and lowered them (B) , with deceit/temptation so when they (B) tasted/experienced the tree, their (B)'s shameful genital private parts appeared to them (B), and they (B) started and continued (to) stick/tried hard to make do with what they do not have on them (B) from the Paradise's leaves , and their (B)'s Lord called them (B) "Did I not forbid/prevent you (B) from that the tree, and I said to you (B) that the devil (is) for you (B) an evident enemy?"
They (B) said "Our Lord, We caused injustice/oppressed ourselves, and if You do not forgive for us, and You have mercy upon us, we will be/become from the losers ."
He said "Drop/descend/reduce some of you to some (are) an enemy, and for you in the earth/Planet Earth (is) settlement/establishment and long life/enjoyment to a time ."
He said "In it you live, and in it you die, and from it you are brought out ."*** SO the human falls to the material level and if not for the help of the God he/she fails.**
Brother your beliefs always inspiring. for real. but the main difference here is that im taking this story literally. You are not. Like totally different end of the spectrum loooll. You are violet. Im red. You are day and im night. lollllll. This releationship is not going to work
Thats fine D But dont close your mind to the metaphorical understanding.

Salaam Jaxal
"And Adam, reside with your mate in paradise, and eat from wherever you please; but do not approach this tree or you will be of the wicked."
But the devil whispered to them, to reveal their wickedness to them which was kept from them; and he said "Your Lord did not forbid you from this tree except that you would become Angels, or you would be immortal."
And he swore to them "I am giving good advice."
So he misled them with deception; and when they tasted the tree, their wickedness became apparent to them, and they rushed to cover themselves with the leaves of paradise; and their Lord called to them "Did I not forbid you from that tree, and tell you that the devil is your clear enemy?"
They said "Our Lord, we have wronged our selves and if You do not forgive us and have mercy on us, then we will be of the losers!"
He said "Descend; for you are enemies to one another, and on earth you will have residence and provisions until the appointed time."
He said "In it you will live and in it you will die, and from it you will be brought forth."'
What was it that was concealed from them, surely not apple, pear or grape and why did they rush to cover it up with leaves. Any explanations

hello Jaxal
Too many differnet opinions in here, I found it a bit confusing actually, so let me add my 2c and possibly it may add to the confusion
Firstly I have to eliminate the evolution possibility specifically for Bani Adam, possibly the evolution was triggered by Allah foe many other creatures including human like monkeys or monkeys like humans, but both never evolved into the intelligent human like me and you, all the historical data that was discovered only implies that human like me and you appeared on earth all of a sudden about 8000 years ago,
Also the Quran came clear in saying that Adam was ONE person and Allah created Eve from Adam and all of us came from the two, let?s have a look at the verse
?O mankind! reverence your Guardian-Lord, who created you from a single person, created, of like nature, His mate, and from them twain scattered (like seeds) countless men and women;- reverence Allah, through whom ye demand your mutual (rights), and (reverence) the wombs (That bore you) for Allah ever watches over you.?
(1)
-> very clear mate from the words ?from a single person?
My second note is about where Adam and Eve were created, and if they lost the residency in paradise because of their submission to Satan
The point is, the verse says ? ?, this does not mean that Allah will create Adam on earth from the first day of creation, rather the Arabic word ?? does not mean ?create? but I would say it means more to ?enforce?, or ?to cause something to happen? but never to ?create?
This is the actual lateral meaning of the word ? ?
Now what I read for the last 25 years in many of the Arabic books that I have make sense to the whole thing, so let me and briefly try to explain
-
before humans inhibited earth, the Jinns were living on it, however they committed a lot of horrifying mischief, I would say due to their amazing abilities that Allah has given to them
-
one of the Jinn was a hypocrite showing an amazing belief in Allah, he was Satan, Allah knew satan's hypocrisy of course, but Allah did not expose Satan yet, some historian wrote that Satan was an example of a very good believer ?but he was a hypocrite? he was only doing it to be elevated by Allah
-
It was in Allah plan to use Satan hypocrisy to give us a great lesson before we will be forced to live on earth, so Allah planned and He is the best of the planners
-
He raised Satan up to the heaven (which heaven?) I really careless, some said it is the true paradise, some said it was a very high area on earth, for me this point is silly because I?m looking for the important message out of it, but I have no problem to accept it as the true heaven or a smaller version of it next to the true heaven, what is the difference?
-
later on Allah sent an army of angels to punish the Jinn by imprisoning them under the earth crust, the books I read also suggested that satan joined this army against the rest of the Jinn
-
The story continue as follow, Satan was assigned a job in paradise, some suggested as a paradise keeper with the Angels that were already assigned this job by Allah, Satan definitely thought his hypocrisy was working, while the truth was far from that, he was actually being used by Allah to help Adam and Eve understand a very tough lesson
-
Those historians also suggested that the wonder the angels expressed to what Allah stated about putting man on earth, when they said ?Wilt Thou place therein one who will make mischief therein and shed blood?? was a result of the mischief the jinn did on earth and they were aware of it, otherwise how they come to know the future? Especially of humans never inhibited earth before that moment. Allah response to them was mighty, that He knows what they don?t know, they thought Bani Adam will be a similar creature like Bani Satan, sure they did not know what Allah did not tell them, that is what the angels said to Allah when He asked them to say a few names to a few objects and they failed. While Adam succeeded because Allah has taught him what He did not taught the angels
-
In the story that I read from the 5000 pages book stated that while Adam was still a dead clay moulded into shape, Satan was really puzzled and going crazy and was eager to know what Allah is planning to do, Satan used to enter the moulded shape of Adam from his mouth and exit from his bottom trying to see what is inside that moulded shape that was created from clay
let?s look again at ? ?, it is clear that Allah is saying the humans are intended to be put on earth, the verse never said ?created man on earth?, in Arabic it will be like this ? ? , Allah can easily create humans on earth from day one and by just telling Adam and Eve to watch for satan and his progeny, but instead of doing the typical thing, Allah planned this to be associated with a very tough lesson to Adam and Eve, the very tough lesson will make them determined to pass on the message to their children and the real test and struggle that we were created for just begun,
-
Then the story continues as you all know by exposing satan hypocrisy in front of Adam and the angels, and been kicked out of the garden, he requested to be left unpunished till the judgment day and his wish was granted according to Allah?s plan
-
Adam and Eve lived in the garden for about 40 years as the historian suggested, until Satan managed to slip into the garden and deceive them, and that was the intended lesson by Allah that was awesomely planned, to show Adam the real enemy that will cause him to descend to earth, this was the sign for Adam, it did not really caused him to descend rather to make it look like that so he feels the agony and realize the great loss and consequently his job as the first prophet will be fulfilled with determination, you will also notice that Allah has forgiven Adam straightaway
By looking at the lesson given and the clear intention of Allah to force us to live on earth, we should appreciate that great lesson given to our parents, because this will create the enmity between humans and Satan, which may help us in not submitting to him,
Which paradise?, it will be irrelevant to know if we look at the lesson given by Allah and the facts that we were intended at to be put on earth from the first place, no losses really, only gain as I see it
How they descended? Again, I consider this irrelevant because Allah can do anything possible or not possible. What I will care about that they descended as it was intended to be by Allah
Funny enough that even with this tough lesson given to our parents to easily recognise our greatest enemy (Satan), he still deceive us bad, imagine, we were put on earth straightaway to start this testing life and all Adam got was a verbal warning from Allah to watch for our enemy Satan?, I would say we might have committed more mischief on earth than the Jinn before us did
Sorry for my long comment
cheers

There is no mention of EVE in Qur'an. Secondly Qur'an did not say that Jinns were living on earth before Adam. Qur'an mention some creature living on earth even not worth mentioning before Adam.
Satan entering into the mould of Adam from mouth and coming out from behind makes no sense.
-
There is no mention of EVE in Qur'an.
Hi,
I did not say that, but there was mention of Adam's wife in the Quran for sure, I just called her Eve, but I have no problem to accept any other name, it makes no difference to me really, i just used the commonly known one "Eve"
Secondly Qur'an did not say that Jinns were living on earth before Adam.
again I didn't say that, what I said that i read an intense book by some arab historians some 20 years ago, but I tend to believe it because it does not conflict with the Quran, but I'm sure you will agree that the Jinn were created some time before humans, so why not they did not inhibit earth as the do now?
Qur'an mention some creature living on earth even not worth mentioning before Adam.
I read this comment by you twice now, I have no problem in accepting that, i just need to see the verse if you don't mind, can you direct me to it?, but what that has to do wuth the creation of humans like me and you?
Satan entering into the mould of Adam from mouth and coming out from behind makes no sense.
I found it laughable as well, however with a clear cut confused mad crazy freak and hypocrite like Satan I have no porblem in accepting this funny bit that I read some 20 years ago
cheers

Hey KGB
I think you are missing a very important logical fact, when Allah told the Angels that He is going to put man on earth, they wondered because that man will cause mischief and shed blood on earth
we also read in the Quran that the Angels only know what Allah has taught them, other than that they know nothing
so how come they knew that man will cause mischief and shed blood on earth unless they have seen the same actions done by some other creatues on earth?
cheers

Peace be upon you,
The "malaika" are the energies/forces that control events. These forces are directed by thoughts. Your thoughts direct you in life. Once a thought gets energy behind it (e-motion), it becomes a belief.
"adam" is the intellect, when it is not submitting to the God's WORD, it has the capability of causing mayhem, like we have seen over and over in the history of man. It is a segregating faculty and the wicked's greatest tool is DIVIDE and conquer. This is why the concept of ONENESS/UNITY is so important.

Hello again, I would like to add this info to support my claim that humans like us appeared all of a sudden 8000 to 10,000 years ago
I found this very interesting book in my library that I bought about 25 years ago, this book is all about finding in what year the intelligent human appeared on earth and how life progressed since then, I always find this subject interesting as most of the times we ask ourselves how the hell we exist now, I?m sure possibly everyone has asked this question, and I?m sure there is no definite answer given but answers based on belief
However we have a lot of researches over many years done and science may help in answering this question, the results of these researches when put together with what we know about the prophets, a close enough answer may be found as long as there is no contradictions between science/discoveries and what we know about the prophets
Because the question of the chicken is first or the egg has no definite answer, the authors of this book had to base their book on one assumption regarding the intelligent humans, that Adam was created by God then Eve was created after and both were sent to start life on earth, this assumption actually what all major religions agree on with slight discrepancies in the details, but the main story is the same
My problem is, this book is huge and I have to very much summarize it as well translate it with my poor English, I can do both with exceptions of some prophet names that I only know in Arabic and possibly some other complex English vocabularies which I can tackle by resorting to descriptions
They found that the far middle east area ?Egypt, Iraq, Gulf and Iran? has enjoyed some characteristics that helped in making the first civilizations start there
1, they are at the middle of the world which is good for transportation
2, there is many rivers and other water resources, which helped in gathering people around it and stabilise themselves
3, there are plenty of natural resources in the area that he;ped the people at the time in evolving their lives starting from the late stone age that the researches agreed it started about BC 6000 and started in the areaalso if we look at the history of the religions we find that all major religions ?Judaism, Christianity and Islam? started in this area, and all prophets appeared in the area as well, in fact many religious scholars claim that Adam and Eve was sent first into this area, so trying to find the missing link between religions and the studies/researches to find when humans came to existence is really valid to a degree
the Earth age was estimated as about 2000 million years, it was divided into 4 major very long periods, and these itself were divided into other sub periods
the first period lasted 1500 million years, and is called like Dusty Age, or possibly Arky Age, there was no life then as the earth was still a ball of fire and this what it took to cool down
the second period started from 500 million years and lasted about 300 million years, it is called the Old Life Age or Biliosae Age, then life started as a very simple form, then more complex creatures stated to appear, like fish and others which live in waters and grounds, and this is the time when life started on grounds
the third period was called the Middle Life Age or Misoi Age, which started at 200 million years and lasted 150 million years, then dinosaurs appeared and other huge creatures, but a sudden change in earth climate ?possibly by a huge meteoroid? all these creatures eliminated, and by the end of this period at about 75 million years from now mammals started to appear
the last period was called the Recent Life Age or Coniosis Age, this period lasted 50 million years and was divided into many ages, last was the Bliostosen Age which started about one million years ago, and this is when what the scientists call the human family has started and ended with the appearance of the intelligent human or the late human as scientists call it
the last period the Bliostosen Age has seen many civilizations that were confirmed by findings and fossils, this has enabled the historians and the researchers to divide this sub period into more sub/sub periods according to the materials that were used for the discovered tools, this in effect means it was divided according to how civilised the creatures were at the time,
1, The Ancient Stone Age ?Arkiolithic? , which started from one million years to about BC 600,000
2, The Old Stone Age ?Biolythic? , which started from BC 600,000, to BC 10,000
3, The Middle Stone Age ?Mesolithic? , which started from BC 10,000 to BC 6,000
4, The Late Stone Age ?Neolithic?? , which started from BC 6,000 years to about BC BC 3,000the researches also found the writing was learnt by intelligent humans at about BC 3,000 as they could not find any evidences to suggest otherwise, this made them to come up with 2 major categories of earth age, the Before History Age and the After History Age, the difference is when the After History Age started at about BC 3,000 humans started to record the information they posses or discover, unfortunately this means confirming stories before the After History Age will always be hard
however many will ask, would that mean that those human like creatures that inhibited earth, confirm that human like us were created at that time?, I would say no is the answer, because the question is finding the time of human like us as we see ourselves now i.e exact same physics, social behaviour and mental characteristics as us
Darwin has tried to answer this question and many thought he had the answer, but I really doubt his theory for 2 simple reasons that I discovered myself, why for at least the last 5000 years, we did not find any monkey become a human? Or any creature becomes some other similar creature?
Also if the answer that the humans evolution took millions of years and stopped thousands of years ago, then we can see in just a couple of thousand years, human numbers exploded from a couple of billions to about 7 billions, this means for argument sake that if humans stopped evolving a lot of thousands of years ago and just resorted to the sexual act for reproduction, then by now there should be no place on earth for further humans, I really find this simple argument has ground
We fairly need to look at this further and see what the fossils has told usAs stated above the human family as the scientists call it has started at the Bliostosen Age, about one million years ago, the scientists managed to concluded that at the first stage of this age, creatures like humans ?similar to the Gorillas and Monkeys started to appear at this age and can be divided into 2 main categories
1, The Monkey like Humans, which appeared between BC 600,000 to BC 300,000, they managed to find a few skeletons in Jawa or Gawa and was called Jawa Man, as well Beijing Man in China, they also found these skeleton remains in west Europe
- The Human like Monkeys which BC 100,000 to BC 60,000, they found a few skeletons in Germany ?Heidelberg? Heidelberg Man, South Africa ?Rhodesia? Rhodesia Man and finally Neanderthal Man who appeared at the end of the this period and was totally extinct b BC 40,000
at the second stage of this age between BC 60,000 and BC 16,000, other creatures appeared that scientists consider very similar to us and in fact it was very close to us but it was extinct by BC 16,000 and no evidence found that really and conclusively link it to us, they found many skeletons in many areas around the world
1, England ?Swanscomb? and Germany ?Schtienhime?, was aged BC 60,000 to BC 50,000
2, Palestine ?Karmal Mount and Italy ?Greamaldy? ?, was aged BC 50,000 to BC 30,000
3, South France ?Kromaneon?, was aged BC 30,000 to BC 16,000this human like creature was extinct by BC 16,000 and they found a missing link between this time and BC 10,000 the end of the Old Stone Age, and for all these human like creatures starting by Jawa Man and ending by Kromaneon Man the scientists could not find the missing link between them and the true intelligent human like us, absolutely till now no link
In the third stage of this age, the scientist concluded that human exactly like us appeared and they divide their civilizations as follow
1, the existence of us, about BC 10,000 and BC 8,000
2, Agriculture, when we learnt it was about BC 8,000 and BC 6,000, where animals were deployed as helping hands as proven from many historical discoveries, humans learnt agricultures as a necessity for food then by BC 6,000, it became as a main job for all
3, Building, humans after finding security in agricultures started to be more inventive and more civilized looking for new ideas for better life, between BC 6,000 and BC 4,500 they started building small villages and cities
4, The real Civilizations, this period between BC 4,500 and BC 3,000, when the political and religious forces started to have huge influence on humanity, it is noted that it ended at BC 3,000 when humans started to learn writing and started to record their current affairsthe very well known civilizations appeared at that time were mostly in Egypt and Iraq, for example,
in Egypt
1, Al-Fayoom Civilization about BC 4,300 in Fayoom City
2, Al-Badari Civilization about BC 4,100 in Upper Egypt

The "malaika" are the energies/forces that control events. These forces are directed by thoughts. Your thoughts direct you in life. Once a thought gets energy behind it (e-motion), it becomes a belief.
I found it a bit complex to comprehend what you stated about the "Malaika", "The Angels", but what I found is much easier to understand and comperhend is whar their Creator said about them in His own words as stated in the Quran, so I believe they are physical creatuers created from Light, they were created to enforce God's laws and wishs, "while He does not need them to force it as He does not need our worrship to Him", they also have jobs, like paradise guards, hell guards, clerks who write what we do, some to control the clouds, some for the winds and tornados, others for enforcing death, etc.. in fact I read in te oast that the angels are the easiest of the cretures that Allah creates and there are zillions of them and again I tend to believe it based on the fact that every human has two angels to document what he/she does in the whole life as stated in the Quran
"adam" is the intellect, when it is not submitting to the God's WORD, it has the capability of causing mayhem, like we have seen over and over in the history of man. It is a segregating faculty and the wicked's greatest tool is DIVIDE and conquer. This is why the concept of ONENESS/UNITY is so important.
I agree but I hope you mean a physical intellect Adam with an not just the intellect?
